If you are performing an internal standard calibration, the
software determines the constants as listed below:
Region of
segments included
in composite
spectrum
The composite spectrum is generated from portions of the
segment traces. The upper mass limit of the composite region
in each segment is determined by the PSD Mirror Ratio (R
n
)
with which the segment was acquired and the mass of the
precursor ion (m
p
) (Figure 8-3).
